Transforming a New Home with Custom Window Treatments: A Case Study by Made in the Shade Northern Kentucky
At Made in the Shade Northern Kentucky, we take pride in helping homeowners find the perfect window treatments to bring their vision to life. Recently, we worked with Cheryl & Craig, wonderful clients who had just moved into their new home in Newport, KY. Cheryl’s goal? To enhance her beautiful city views while adding stylish functionality to her space. Here’s how we helped her achieve her dream.
The Challenge: Style Meets Privacy
Cheryl wanted window treatments that would highlight her stunning cityscape views but also provide privacy. She had one specific request: shades that could move down from the top, allowing her to enjoy natural light and a clear city view while avoiding visibility from nearby homes.
The Solution: Tailored Elegance
During our consultation, we immediately noticed the bold black-and-gold wallpaper in Cheryl’s bathroom. This inspired the choice of Norman Roller Shades in Aruba Espresso, which complemented the space perfectly. We installed these roller shades on multiple windows, tying the home’s aesthetic together seamlessly.
To meet Cheryl’s specific request for top-down shades, we recommended Norman SmartFit Solus Black Honeycomb Shades. These versatile shades allowed Cheryl to enjoy the city views while maintaining her privacy—a must-have feature for her new home.
For Craig’s home office, Cheryl fell in love with Norman SmartDrapes, which add elegance and practicality. Although she initially wanted the drapes to stop at the window sill, we encouraged her to go floor-length for a polished look. They later expressed how happy they were with this decision, telling us it was the perfect choice.
We also added Horizons Drapery Panels and Roman Shades, paired with a Graber Drapery Rod, for additional texture and warmth. The result was a cohesive, luxurious look that made Cheryl & Craig’s home as stunning as its views.
The Outcome: A 5-Star Transformation
Cheryl & Craig couldn’t have been more pleased with the results. Cheryl left us this glowing Google review:
“Patrick & his team were amazing! From the design consultant to the installation, everything went smoothly. I can’t say enough good things about Adele, the design consultant. So helpful & a great eye! She was very patient with me while I made my decisions. I love all my new window coverings! They are all gorgeous! So glad I chose ‘Made in the Shade!'”

We’re thrilled to have had the opportunity to work with Cheryl & Craig to bring their vision to life. Their home is now a perfect blend of style and functionality, and we look forward to completing their project with solar shades for their deck.
